I picked up this game and it is one of the most frustrating games I have ever witnessed. It is also one of the most rewarding. However it is also a game that I can only really play one level at a time since my ability to suffer can only last about that long.

In turn, it will probably be a very long time before I can actually beat this game. Let alone beat it 3 times and get the platinum trophy.

I'm curious where all you stand.

I beat it. I want to try to go for the Platinum, but harvesting those stones will take way too long.

I played this game to death. I started out just playing the campaign offline because I had an irrational fear of black phantoms. Then I got a friend hooked on DS and we started playing online. It was like a whole new experience. I loved blue phantoming and I began to look forward to black phantom invasions. I then started black phantoming for awhile. That was a whole new experience too. It was crazy how many people set up ambushes for BPs and how many people disconnected -- it kept things interesting. I even tried red phantoming for awhile. This game is made to be played for hours and hours.With all the hours I put into this game you better believe that I plat'd it.

It's one of those games that are worth getting the platinum just for fun and you know what? i've got it! took like freaking 2 months, though.

I haven't even beat it once yet. I'm sort of taking a hiatus for the time being to play other games because this one is rather time consuming and I'd be at it for awhile.

I Haven't beat it once yet. I love the game but getting to a boss, dieing then going back to the start of the level is a thing I can only do so often. Still trying though.

It's just that there are some enemies who can one shot you, which is why you can't let them touch you (magic and dodging for the win). I've found that a lot of the people who really struggled with the game were choosing to wear heavy armor which totally inhibited their movement - you should be wearing less than half the allowed weight. To me, being able to roll, dodge and move quickly is one of the most important abilities in the game. The fact is, no matter what your armor, you can be one shotted in the NG + anyway.

Beat it fairly easily, and will work on my plat progressively, but not right now. My next Demon's Souls run through will be the NG+, in which I'll work towards the plat.

its not that hard,after doing research about the game,i learned a few things that made it much eaiser for me: Slow and steady,explore,view every hints and blood Start with an easy class,like Temple Knight,Royal or Soldier Defeat the tutorial boss (strip your self,then just gains some ground and attack,consume the soul,bam! SL increased MANY people thought it would be just,run up to an enemy,do some flashy GOW3 kill

Oh dear, I hope he isn't taking on the REK in 1-1. Do not attempt him in the beginning. And I wouldn't call a REK a commoner mob, they're one of the most challenging mobs in the game.

I got past Leechmonger then got bored of the game. I didn't really give up, I just got bored of having to play the same levels over and over again to get easy souls for upgrading stuff. I played it about 55 hours. Great game, but I just got bored of having to what needed to be done in order to succeed.

I went this far (LOL, I always wanted to post this video)

I got the platinum, and sometimes I like playing it as a blue phantom to pwn some black phantoms at 1-4.

finished it 4 times, i never play a game again just for trophies. if a game is good enough and gives you incentivesto play through again like harder difficulties and keeping your equipment like DS and MGS4 then i will play it multiple time

Ive beaten about 5 bosses so far. The last one was the big thing with the tongue that whips you. At the minute im not really stuck on a boss, its more about getting to a boss. Any general gameplay tips would help to be honest. :)

Demon Souls is one of the most interesting games that I have ever played, but it is also the hardest game that I have ever played and that is why I think that I have given up on it. I really wish that there were a difficulty setting because I really would like to play this game.

I stopped after beating perhaps a couple bosses. I think the last boss I beat was either the Armored Spider or that fire boss. The game is hardcore, and well, I'm just not a hardcore person.

I'm at world 1-4 now. Reached the boss twice, was pretty easily handled by him (but not killed...thanks Evacuation) both times. I haven't touched the game in over 2 weeks, though. Got distracted by Monster Hunter Tri and picking up Red Dead Redemption this Tuesday. Maybe I'll try again this weekend. Great game, but I don't plan on going for Platinum. To much time spent farming for rocks/stones/ores. I'd rather spend that time playing other games.

Yea, haha.

You have to admit this game is hard.

I have played this game between 10 - 15 hours just to finally give up because how hard it was as I always made it to a certain spot in 2 of the game worlds/levels and I kept on dying. So I may give it another try, and I hope I don't go crazy afterwards like I did before.

My highest character is soul level 120. Finished it but never got the platinum, maybe someday.

And to all those who have got it. Amazing job, you are awesome!

"I am in trouble... Please recommend this message!"

Be glad you don't see that one every 10 steps... Im sure that people are playing though. Did you quit the game and go back in? Sometimes my friends would not find messages or players until he restarted his game.

I played through three times, got a platinum trophy, and played through two more times with a different character. Demon's Souls is one of the best games I've ever played.
